Wth was he doing? Why did Pablo only get 3 minutes, when Kidd has gone scoreless for 7 games and sucks on defense? Why did Shumpert only play 15 minutes? Why was JR getting so many minutes? Why doesn't he play Copeland?

What are we saving Camby for?

WTH IS WOODSON DOING?

He's costing us the series with his horrible adjustments. We need a new coach.

Oh, you mean when you got in an argument when I said this like two years ago I was right? Woodson is an average coach, at best. I don't think he's ever been good. I do not like his play style. We play great defense, fine, but in the NBA you need to have an offense. I'm not saying you need a Mike D'Antoni style offense, but you need to be able to draw up and run plays. This iso ball **** doesn't work in the NBA. Not in the playoffs. When JR and Melo hit a cold streak, which they are bound to do, it's going to fail. Hard. Especially when the defense and intensity is amped up in the playoffs.

I'm not one for tooting my own horn (that's what she said) but I feel pretty proud of myself. Not really because my team is getting destroyed, but I feel like I'm quite objective when it comes with the Knicks. A lot of their flaws are coming out now that we're in playoff basketball. It's why I told you the regular season does not mean anything. We won because we could play revolving doors on defense like Copeland and Novak. We could sustain a JR or Melo slump because it's a long season and other guys could pick it up.

But, we're old. As I said from the beginning, Kidd is terrible. God awful signing that I hated and still hate even more now. Not sure why you want Camby. He's old as dirt and offers nothing too.

This team is depressing. It's rare I don't like the players on my favorite team, but this is one of the few times it has happened. I don't like Melo (and never have) as a player and person. I think he's vastly overrated. He does one and half things well. And is far too streaky/inconsistent for my liking. The man should be dominating and shooting 50% every night. He can get to the rim if he wants. He can post up. He can do all these great things but he settles for stupid threes and pull up mid-range shots. That's fine when he's hitting them because we're all fapping over him, but those shots are going to miss at some point.

We're winning this series. I'm calling it now. We're missing open shots we always make, those shots have to start coming down eventually. And we play 2 of the next 3 at home. We just have to put it together and we're back in this.

I can sort of understand the Wizards turning away Harden, because their payroll would have been ridiculous, but still, that was pretty horrible on their part. The Thunder wouldn't have taken back any bad contracts but they could have moved a piece or two after this season and let Harden play out his last year on his rookie deal before extending him to keep their salary down.

Saying Harden wouldn't fit with the Warriors is dumb. He'd fit in perfectly with what the Warriors do, and he's pretty good at finding the open guy on drive & kicks. With Harrison Barnes and Curry.. that would have been a disgusting team. Small ball foreva.

Signing Ty was in no way an awful move. Dude is awesome. The mistake was amnestying Chauncey instead of Amare.

lolknicks. Make ridiculous contract offer to Amar'e that crippled their cap flexibility for years, then somehow Fisher and the owners **** the players and get a sweet throw in to the CBA that allows them to clear giant **** ups with the cap... Knicks still screw up the method to unscrew their screwups.

I disagree completely. He's not that good. He can rebound, he can play defense, which is more than what most centers can do but he's certainly not worth what we gave him. I always felt that whole "he's a defensive leader" non-sense was overrated. He's injury prone too. He managed to stave it off long enough for people to forget that and get a long deal.

Plus we blew any chance at Paul by signing him. And we wasted the amnesty BECAUSE OF HIM. We could of have used the amnesty on Stat, signed Paul and lived with an average/below average center.

It was a terrible move for a variety of reasons. Not even so much because of the player he is. I don't think he's great by any means, but he's a solid center, but because of what we gave up to get him was foolish.

I mean, you KNOW Paul wants to be here with Melo. There have been those indications made time and time again.

Amare was coming off a monster year, and was still in his prime. You can't hold that against them.

Amare already showed wear at the end of the year. A guy with that injury history is tough to amnesty someone that is still decent. It's almost as bad as the warriors Amnestying Charlie Bell to bid on DeAndre Jordan. Almost.

Yes, but Paul, Melo, and Chandler sounds better than Paul, Melo, and Amare.
